Yes, please stop trying to drag the conversation back into default "AI good/AI bad" scripts. It was not about that. Thank you.

Yes, exactly. Let me try another analogy: AI-related comment sections are like a watering hole for both get-rich-quick grifters, but also bad people wanting to hurt others. The technology is so disruptive that there are all sorts of opportu

I think understand the purpose of this comment. I think you're sensing friction and you'd like to reduce that by explaining for the other guy. Which is a common social script, but one that is being exploited here I'd say. But

My (arguably not very directly communicated, true) actual point is that "weird" is a term that is not really suited for tool choices like this. "Weird" is a social concept. It's an artifact that has its roots in soc

While this can work, especially for disposable code, doing this for non-disposable code is going to set you up for a very very _very_ rough awakening, the moment the models fail or your access to them fails. Make sure to regularly validate

Thanks! I see what you mean with "unwise", though, I would not say that it would validate the bad faith attacks I'm seeing. After all, all he did there is show his hand, which (possibly) hurt him in court. I suppose the takea

Do you still happen to have any links there? Or pointers of phrases or similar. This would check out indeed for me, as it would invoke the same responses as an astroturfing campaign in normal people, as the whole "social cohesion"

I wouldn't rule out that it might also be that, though, this too sounds like "he's mentally ill" but phrased differently. I honestly do not see what you're saying there, but I also have no people in my life that wou

From an outsiders perspective, Matt's claims of comment sections like this one being heavily astroturfed do sound somewhat credible. Every single one of them I saw so far has the same bad faith attacks, claiming that that guy's me

Dude this site is so funny at times. Incredible. Yes, why would you ever address someone with something that is not in their best interest. Especially people that have power. I agree. We should never do that and let them just live in peace

I would expect that there could be some reputational damage coming from a written confession to fraud. "This company is known for this kind of fraud" even though it isn't. But the paper says it is.

Given that LLMs are currently the frontier of innovation in our industry, it does make sense to me that most stuff that happens and gets talked about would be somehow connected to it. There's a lot of focus on in. People are trying it
